The man is being righteous. There was this really funny anecdote about the song "Heroes": Robert Fripp blasting his amplifier full open and him standing in a sweet spot to get that feedbacking droning high A note. Fripp then overdubbed that a couple of times to really get a hypnotic drone going and that's what ended up on the record. Come the tour: Adrian Belew is brought in because of Fripp having other responsibilities demanding his attention. The band is starting rehearsals and Belew starts the high A note drone for "Heroes"; but halfway through the song Bowie and Eno almost fall over laughing. They then tell Belew that it took Fripp a couple of overdubs to get that part right and here Belew is playing all of it on his own.
@@dd-vm1hs No overdubbing is a recording technique invented by Les Paul (Yes THAT Les Paul) where a musician can basically record all the tracks for a song himself. Listen to the Foo Fighters'first album, it is Dave Grohl overdubbing the drums, guitars and bass tracks. He did that entire album by himself. What Fripp did on "Heroes" was to record four versions of that howling siren part which were then laid on top of each other
I misunderstood the first sentence of your comment at first because I originally thought you were calling him *self* righteous, I don't know why I took it to mean that at first but I'm happy I kept reading and found out I was wrong
What an underrated guitarist and person Adrian Belew is. He has worked with so many music legends and has become a legend himself for his creative, perfect, experimental and challenging guitar playing and solo artist work, plus being an amazing vocalist. His work with King Crimson, especially "Discipline", is incredible. IMHO, there are lots of musicians that are more popular than Belew, who don't have as much experience, creativity and style as he does. "Wicked world we live in"
Belew has been the secret sauce in many bands (don’t forget Talking Heads!) but never quite got there in his solo work. I’ve seen him with KC a few time and very sorry he’s not touring with them now. This interview made me think of Mick Ronson. Another great guitarist who needed someone to play against to be at his best. God Bless David, God bless Mick and I hope Adrian goes on for a long time.
As a young wannabe musician, I met him at a Roland event at Gand Music and Sound in Northfield, IL ('83?) and it was one of my favorite experiences. He was very down to earth and seemed to genuinely enjoy talking shop with all of us.
What a lovely man, still humble, and grateful for the job he does, a talented guy, who seems really down to earth to this day, a great showman himself.
Stellar interview. One call tell Adrien Belew is a very humble musician. Quite a unique and original guitarist. It was a great pleasure to see him perform with King Crimson, back in '84 & 2000.
I'm glad to have gotten confirmation from Adrian Belew himself that the solos on the "Lodger" album were not played through from start to finish, but edits put together from several takes. For years I've been scratching my head (figuratively) wondering how it was all done.
Met Adrian on a few occasions. He's a genuinely nice man, just like this video. Saw him in concert several times, solo, with the Bears, with Crimson, with Bowie. He's really greatness.
He talks like a guy from just across the Ohio River from Cincinnati, Ohio, a town called, "Ludlow KY." Just a regular, all-round friendly guy who just happens to be one of the greatest guitarists in the history of rock-n-roll music. Thank you, Adrian.
Wow, excellent interview. Being a huge Belew and Bowie fan, I knew most of the stories already. But it was great hearing them straight from The Man, himself. Thanks, Adrian and David for all the great years of music. I can honestly say that both of you changed my life.
You know this guy is special when he's playing the Three of a Perfect Pair riff, singing the song at the same time, and smiling and having a good time while doing it! Brilliant talent and seemingly a nice person at the same time.
Embarrassed to say I'm just getting into King Crimson and was stunned by the talent of Adrian Belew. Robert Fripp is great, but Belew is the real deal. Learning more about him every day.
we bought tickets for the 90 DB tour specifically to see adrian play guitar and he did such an amazing job , the whole band , the music was so spectacularly great , BUT seeing david bowie live was something i never experienced , that guy really had something special . i also saw sir paul , but i have to say david bowie was THE top performer i ever witness in the flesh . so lucky . thanks adrian belew for making my life so much more interesting .
Love this guy. Actually i just recently "discovered" him, you know, i mean there are records and songs you now and really dig, but i don´t usually research every musician who plays on it. So i already liked the stuff he did with Zappa and Bowie, without being aware thet there´s a person called Adrian Belew who was part of it. Then i found out about him watching a ridiculously great live performance of the 80s incarnation of King Crimson: "Elephant Talk" on the show Fridays. Wow. And to find out he is such a cool, nice person as well as an incredibly great, inspiring guitarist just makes me love this guy.
The same happened to me, although i knew KC Discipline (first time I heard that band) i was the fascinated by the leading vocal but time passed, I grow up, I took distance from music, and almost 30 years later I discovered him. And I learned in a month (thanks CZcams) alomst all about his career. And as all of you here l think he is a very humble genius, funny, real person, great musician. I admired him.
d d you need to listen to more Nine inch nails then, The Fragile is an excellent record Although weirdly enough Belew is on probably one of their weaker albums hesitation marks 🤷♂️
d d I mean the Manson thing I get and makes sense because Manson got is start because of Trent and I get it not every type of music is for everyone 🤷♂️
Below is great. Underrated big time. Multi instrumentist. Guitar drums Cello you name it. Worked with the best. ZAPPA KING CRIMSON TALKING HEADS LAURIE ANDERSON. NIN. TRENT REZNOR. SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. Great Solo records as well. He had admiration for BOWIE. Adrian is one of the good guys. Really down to earth.
Being fully well aware of who he was, I met Adrian Belew on a shoot in 1986 (I"m a photographer) and he he couldn't have been nicer or more humble. And that was not what I was expecting from someone who is such an incredible guitarist.
Great interview, heartfelt...from a great musician who worked with DB. It's so hard to accept this loss. A world without David Bowie is a lot colder and empty..though we do have his music which won't die.
oh this makes me feel mixed emotions, on one hand the fondness of Adrian's memories brings a smile to my face, on the other hand it saddens me to think that we lost such a wonderful not only musician but also what seems to have been a great human being
I was lucky to have met Adrian shortly after the 1990 Orlando show. And spent a whirlwind 10 days tooling around the country with him! Amazing man this Adrian Belew is!
I’ve listened to a lot of cats, but Adrian Belew has done more to advance the electric guitar than anyone I can think of, sheer creativity in every aspect of his playing and sound, and consistently innovative and new at every stage of his career. Sitting in the front row at the Sunrise Theater in Ft. Lauderdale for King Crimson left me speechless, but the guitar playing and joyful vibe of the Bowie You Tube concert in Germany, with that amazing band, for me is as good as it gets.
+Mark Grudzinski Just glad you aren't one of those people who tried to convince everyone it's the (somewhat) famous Hendrix/Zappa strat. Which - for those who will try to tell us it is - IT IS NOT!
I once read an interview with Adrian where he described how the Strat used to look pretty new. So as preparations were being made to go off on the Zappa tour, he decided to take out all the electronics and components, and burned it up with a blowtorch and knocked it around a bunch of times just to get that super-relic'd look. He then put it back together. When he went to rehearsal, Frank Zappa saw the Strat and said, "If you wanted your guitar to look like that, you could have just loaned it to a friend."
I was actually at David Bowie’s sound and vision tour of 1990 at the Oakland Stadium and that was the second time and last time that I saw David Bowie in concert!! One hell of a concert that was I’ll never forget it!!!
I guess many of my favorite bands included Adrian at one point. He is the through-line . The "voice" of an Era, a paint brush on many canvases. He has a direct line to the universal treasury of creativity. And with complete presence and consciousness he channels Wonder and beauty with SUCH a Joy. It's simply awesome to watch him play. It's also infectious. I want to hear interviews with other musicians about Adrian.
Very cool to see this. I'm newer to Bowie - exploring his catalog now - but an old fan of Belew (King Crimson, Talking Heads, solo, Zappa stuff). Great guy.
Great commentary on Bowie. I always had thought Belew was British. Never knew he lives in Mt. Juliet near my old stomping ground in Knoxville! His description of Bowie and his musical influence on the world was completely spot on. I always liked the guitar playing of Belew much more than the guitar style of Reeves Gebrels. At first I didn't like the Lodger album but later on thought it was super creative and original. It wasn't commercially accesible but it had some of the most creative songs that came out in rock music at that time. Belew summed it all up very well on Bowie and the loss of his musical and creative genius. On a personal level, I lived for the day that Bowie would release a new album and tried to predict the next musical direction he would take. The mid to late 70s were incredibly original. Any of those albums were at the height of his creatively.
I first heard Adrian on the first Bowie tour he did. And I was utterly blown away. He's the guitarist i want to be, but never will be. Him or Fripp, another Bowie favourite. I remember Adrian so well. A tall and wiry dancer with white pleated pants and a Hawaiian shirt and long, lank blond hair that was thinning even then. And he was definitely the second star of the show.
I was just a so-so fan of Bowie at the time, but 'Let's Dance' was a #1 hit and a great dance song, so we went to see him (The 1990's Tour). I also worked at a Hilton, so we got free rooms at any Hilton and there was a Hilton within walking/staggering distance of the concert:) Bowie was the definition of cool. I loved his stage presence and dance moves (rubber legs). Adrian Belew was the guitarist and absolutely TORE IT UP during the solo on Let's Dance!!! Here is the best part. After the show, we were sitting at the Hilton bar and this guy sits down beside me and it was Adrian Belew! Super nice guy & incredible musician. We chatted until he finished his beer and then he went to his room. I partied the night away. It was an incredible show. I rank it in my top 10.
I saw that Bowie tour with Adrian in Nashville, in 1978 at the Municipal Auditorium. I also saw Adrian when he played with Sweetheart at the Ring Side Seat in Nashville.
Blows my mind that you didn't even mention David Byrne talking heads some of your best work which wouldn't have been possible without Bowie and Zappa thank you for your work man really appreciated

Is there any guitarist with a comparable track record? Zappa, Crimson, Talking Heads, Laurie Anderson, Bowie? Good lord
Belew is phoenomenal. Zappa discovered him and launched his career. He taught Belew how to play odd signatures
Maybe a couple. But with his talent? More difficult I think
Pretty cool stuff
and Nine Inch Nails
Glen Campbell for one.

Wido De Marco totally agree, I was lucky enough to meet Adrian about 10 years ago, one of my absolute heros. Fantastic guitar player totally underated

I really enjoyed his work with the Talking Heads also. A true artist
Gio you took the words right out of my mouth!
Been a fan of Adrian's forever. Probably the greatest guitar innovator of all time.
Love the eye roll when he said "That was one of Brian Eno's ideas"
What a lovely man, still humble, and grateful for the job he does, a talented guy, who seems really down to earth to this day, a great showman himself.
Belew deserves so much more recognition, such a humble man and a really good guitarist

For years I've been scratching my head (figuratively) wondering how it was all done.
lextual Billy Gibbons sorta used the same recording technique for all his guitar tracks on the ZZ Top album Eliminator.
Absolutely because the playing is mind blowing.
Met Adrian on a few occasions. He's a genuinely nice man, just like this video. Saw him in concert several times, solo, with the Bears, with Crimson, with Bowie. He's really greatness.
Belew shows always on his performances’s smiles all his humbleness and the joy that music brings to him, such an inspiring musician

Check out his songs with Danny Carey and Les Claypool
Adrian Belew, thank you for this!
Whilst Lodger isn't Bowie's greatest album, the small splatterings of Belew's guitar work are incredible
I LOVE Lodger. Such an underrated album.
Adrian seems like such a sweethweart, as the ladies would say. One very cool dude.

Adrian is just a master human being. In a rare class. He does everything on such a high level. And with relative ease.

Worked with the best.

TALKING HEADS
LAURIE ANDERSON.
NIN.
TRENT REZNOR.
SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.
Great Solo records as well.
He had admiration for BOWIE.
Adrian is one of the good guys.
Really down to earth.
So how is he underrated when you’ve just listed all that stuff about him and he’s a world famous guitarist/musician?! He is not underrated. 😂
Being fully well aware of who he was, I met Adrian Belew on a shoot in 1986 (I"m a photographer) and he he couldn't have been nicer or more humble. And that was not what I was expecting from someone who is such an incredible guitarist.
I appreciate the respect he shows for David Bowie in this clip. Adrian's time with King Crimson was their best period IMO. He's a super creative guy.
Great interview, heartfelt...from a great musician who worked with DB. It's so hard to accept this loss. A world without David Bowie is a lot colder and empty..though we do have his music which won't die.
This guy is a legend!! Superb as singer and guitar player!!! Saw him performing with King Crimson in 2003.
He's such a great guitar player, I also when he was plaiyng with Talking Heads
Isn't it nice to hear someone speak so positively? Adrian is a legend in his own right, yet he his humble, respectful and appreciative of his journey.
Adrian has created so many great songs for so many great artists.
His Young Lions and Mr Music Head albums were pure freaking genius.
That was really nice. Adrian seems like such a great guy, and his guitar playing in incredible!
Loved to hear this testimonial ! Great musicians and creative minds ! Thanks for all the wonderful music you guys produced in all those years.
what a remarkable man....super talented yet so very humble and approachable...the 2 dont always go together...thanks for sharing this with us
oh this makes me feel mixed emotions, on one hand the fondness of Adrian's memories brings a smile to my face, on the other hand it saddens me to think that we lost such a wonderful not only musician but also what seems to have been a great human being
Thanks for sharing, great insight and musical anecdotes :D
Fantastic interview! I was happy to see Adrian as part of King Crimson in 1995 and solo in 2019. He still sounded amazing at nearly 70 years old!
A combination of amazing talent, good personality, professionalism and being at the right time in the right place.
Wow. What humble, fantastically creative guitar player. AB you’re a hero of mine. Thanks for the music.
I was lucky to have met Adrian shortly after the 1990 Orlando show. And spent a whirlwind 10 days tooling around the country with him! Amazing man this Adrian Belew is!

Saw him in São Paulo -1990- playing along with Bowie, just beyond category, the style, the musicianship, a true artist, an original

I saw the 1990 tour with Bowie in Sacramento... it was one of the best I've ever seen
One of my great heroes of music, Adrian Belew. I first encountered him with Zappa but then King Crimson.
Adrian Belew co-wrote and plays guitar on "Genius of Love"
And the rumour is he didn't get a penny for it.
@@artlover1477 yup. Tina Weymouth blocked his calls. Really rotten.
Very cool to see this. I'm newer to Bowie - exploring his catalog now - but an old fan of Belew (King Crimson, Talking Heads, solo, Zappa stuff). Great guy.

Amazing and so humble. Top guy
David was a great musician one of the best and many of the musicians he worked with love him to this day and will always miss him.
So interesting! I was at the Sound & Vision concert! This was great!
I saw him play with the Bears in a small bar on Peachtree St. in Atlanta and on tour with Bowie. Absolutely amazing player/performer.
What a great interview !
Such a humble guy; love him
Thanks for the music Adrian

We used to see his band in Nashville..especially on Rock Nights, which was Sunday nights. They packed 'em in! This was at Flannegan's.
what a lovely interview !
Adrian's style and capabilities are so unique, I don't know how King Crimson plays some of their songs without him.
Fascinating interview.
What a down to earth guy. Nice job!!
Adrian is such a great guy and an amazingly gifted guitarist!
Love Adrian Belew!! Always cool.
I recently messaged Adrian on Facebook and less than 10 minutes later he responded and answered a couple questions, How cool is that?
I've never heard a single bad word said about him by those who have met him. Good on him
humble playful GENIUS always moving forward and can play ANYTHING.

Adrian is a top 10 guitarist in any world!!! Awesome..thanks
What a delightful man.
I saw that Bowie tour with Adrian in Nashville, in 1978 at the Municipal Auditorium. I also saw Adrian when he played with Sweetheart at the Ring Side Seat in Nashville.
Adrian is so right. Bowie's influence has been astronomical in its influence on the music of the past fifty years.
Great interview.
What a nice person. You can see he really did love the guy
This cat is one of the heaviest guitarists living but I also love his singing voice! Early 80’s King Crimson!!!!
Discipline's got some of the best guitar I've heard.
Great video, thanks.
Adrian belew such great guitar player and cool guy
love you Adrian ♥
Comes across as a really down to earth nice guy absolute legend.
Lovely man... what a career.
Blows my mind that you didn't even mention David Byrne talking heads some of your best work which wouldn't have been possible without Bowie and Zappa thank you for your work man really appreciated
Zappa, Talking Heads, King Crimson, then David Bowie. Super Guitarist/Songwriter/Singer. One of the elite musicians from 70s/80s/2000s/Now....
Well spoken sir!!! Absolutely true!!!!!!
Saw him in 79 with Bowie still the best I have seen live I compare everyone else to him
Adrian is such a nice person and a great player, singer, very inventive.
A great and innovative guitarist/ artist.
What a well-spoken artist.
A really cool Guy and a lucky one at that. Nice stores.
What a lovely man.
The only guy I know of that brings power tools to the gig. What an imaginative player.
Very nice interview.
